The earth is a body

 

 



"Earth laughs in flowers to see her boastful boys
Earth-proud, proud of earth which is not theirs;
Who Steer the plough, but can not steer their feet
Clear of the grave
."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882), Hamatreya.

 



"Speak to the earth, and it shall teach thee."
-Old Testament, Job xii. 8.
